    Default Sunnah way of cleaning one's house?

    Assalamu Alaikum wa rahmatULLAHI wa barakatuHU,
    What is the Sunnah way of cleaning one's house? Should one clean one's house daily? Some people argue that if the house is not cleaned daily, barakah goes away from that household. How true is this?

    JazakumULLAH Khair,
    Wassalam ma'al-ikram

    Cleanliness is an integral part of deen and has been stressed on fervently by Rasulullah .

    One hadith of Sunan Tirmidhi Shareef mentions that Allah Ta'ala is clean and love cleanliness and that one should differentiate from the jews and regularly clean ones courtyard.[i]

    That being said, there is no particular sunnah of cleaning the house. Whenever there is a necessity to clean the surroundings, on should make an effort to clean it.

    Wallahu A'lam

    2799 -
    حدثنا محمد بن بشار قال: حدثنا أبو عامر العقدي قال: حدثنا خالد بن إلياس، ويقال ابن إياس، عن صالح بن أبي حسان، قال: سمعت سعيد بن المسيب، يقول: «إن الله طيب يحب الطيب، نظيف يحب النظافة، كريم يحب الكرم، جواد يحب الجود، فنظفوا - أراه قال - أفنيتكم ولا تشبهوا باليهود» قال: فذكرت ذلك لمهاجر بن مسمار، فقال: حدثنيه عامر بن سعد بن أبي وقاص، عن أبيه، عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم مثله، إلا أنه قال: «نظفوا أفنيتكم». هذا حديث غريب وخالد بن إلياس يضعف
